Does your health organisation need engaging content to showcase its impact? Or do you need patient-focused copy to support a public health education campaign?
I can help. I specialise in writing clear, accurate, evidence-based copy for health organisations that engages and builds trust with your audiences. I write for varied audiences, creating accessible, informative content for the general public and precise, evidence-based material for researchers and clinicians. If your in-house team is stretched for time I can step in to support your project with high-quality content on schedule.
My experience spans all therapeutic areas, although I have particular interests in public health, health promotion, maternal and child health, immunology, infectious diseases and mental health. I mainly work with government organisations, universities and third sector clients and have collaborated with leading clinical and research specialists.
From standalone articles to ongoing content series, my aim is to help complex health and science content make sense and make an impact.
